ToddsterPatriot:If you have something from the CBO that backs your claim, you should post it already.
ToddsterPatriot, Refer to: The Effects on Employment and Family Income of Increasing the Federal Minimum Wage (cbo.gov)
page 17, figure 6, graph entitled “Shares of Workers, by Family Income Group, 2025”.
The graph indicates low wage rate earning employees that are members of families of incomes less than two times their poverty thresholds, are 36% of all USA’s employees earning rates within that low-wage rate bracket and 15% of USA’s entire workforce.
The graph also indicates families of incomes less than three times their poverty thresholds, are over 56% of all USA’s employees earning rates within that low-wage rate bracket and 32% of USA’s entire workforce.
